The Founder
You can’t chart a course to what you can’t see.
Sometimes we’re not lacking direction.
We simply haven’t been shown all the possibilities.
I spent much of my life between South Florida and Los Angeles, two major aviation markets, with family established in the MRO industry. Yet despite that proximity, I never fully understood the breadth of technical careers aviation had to offer.
During my fifteen years in Los Angeles, I earned two degrees in psychology through the California State University system and built a career in behavioral therapy, developing a deeper understanding of human behavior, motivation, and the environments where people thrive.
My path eventually led me into business development at an FAA Part 145 repair station in South Florida, where those two worlds intersected. I saw employers struggling to build their technical workforce while aspiring aviation professionals had limited exposure to the career paths available or where their abilities might best fit.
My background in psychology shaped how I saw that disconnect. Understanding what motivates people, where their strengths and interests align, and what environments allow them to thrive is just as important as understanding an employer’s technical requirements. That insight can lead to more purposeful placements and stronger long-term retention.
I founded JetBridge Aviation to bridge that gap, connecting people with opportunities they may never have considered while helping employers identify, develop, and retain the talent they need.
Because building aviation’s future isn’t just about filling positions. It’s about recognizing potential and creating pathways for it to grow.
